Default Renovating my 20's

Currently they are powder coated gunmetal grey, as below, which I do like. But I also like a high polish finish. I think the process to get this is hochglanzverdichten (I don't know the English word for it). One of the wheels has a kerb mark which I'll repair. But afterwards is a repaired rim suitable for this hochglanzverdichten process, or is a powder coat the way to go?
